Anyway, as long as the publishing house can make money, it doesn’t matter what the other partners have in mind!

Chapter 211 The eagle falls, and the companions are full

Pastry Chinese website.

There was both excitement and solemnity in the office.

"Yingying Literature actually collapsed like this?" Mr. Pastry couldn't help but sigh.

"Yes!" Mr. Biscuit also lamented. On the eve of the Yingying website being unable to open, the traffic once exceeded that of cakes.

Unexpectedly, he fell because of the anti-pornography campaign on the Internet.

"We can't be careless. We should pay more attention to novels with scale and problems!" Pastry Man said, "Some Yingying authors have returned and opened new books. The titles and introductions of the books are not right!"

"Well, the review of new books must be stricter!" Mr. Biscuit was also happy and miserable.

Happily, in the short term, a bunch of eagle-eyed authors regurgitate pastries.

The painful thing is that the author here has learned some writing methods that use color. If he doesn't control it, the pastry will soon become the second eagle.

In terms of scale, the pastries are actually stricter than Yingying.I’ve known it since the Xilu BBS era.

In the Xilu BBS era, who were the authors that Pastry attracted?Mainly authors of fantasy and fairy tales.

What kind of authors did Yingying win over?Duanmu, Clay Man, such big guys, and other newcomers who follow the example of these big guys.

To learn Duanmu and clay figurines, you can only learn "Wind Moon Continent" and "Jiangshan".One can imagine the tone of Yingying literature.

"Yesterday, the number of IP visits increased to 60, and the daily PV exceeded 3500 million. The number of books updated every day even exceeded 1000, which is a bit scary!" said the pastry man, "I am afraid that due to negligence, something will happen. Color book!”

"We will not repeat the mistakes of Yingying!" Mr. Biscuit said seriously.

In fact, the path of Yingying Literature, in fact, cakes were also very exciting at one time.

If the standards are relaxed, the traffic will increase very quickly.

Yingying officially opened its website more than a year later than Pastry.The pastries have launched VIP reading, but Yingying has just opened its website.

After the site was launched, it grew so fast. On the one hand, during the Xilu BBS period, Yingying was already the section with the largest traffic, and had accumulated tens of thousands of die-hard readers.

In addition, the management of Eagle Eagle is very radical and continues to produce colorful books.There was also a vigorous poaching of pastries. With continued poaching, the pastry books were signed directly to Yingying Serials, which resulted in a wave of pastry traffic.

Due to various factors, less than a year after the official launch of Yingying, it already has 60 daily active readers, more than 3000 million PVs, and even more than 1000 VIP paid novels.

It can be said that Yingying has reached the limit of this era.

With this development speed, the pastry management believes that it is the general trend for Yingying to surpass pastry and become the number one in the industry.

however……

The proud eagle of a generation is actually like a shooting star.When it comes, it is extremely fast, and when it disappears, it is also unexpected.

……

Quiet Reading Network.

After the Yingying Literature Network server was shut down.

No one is saying that Jingjing Reading Network started to ask authors to self-discipline in June, and the control standards are a bit over the top.

On the contrary, many authors feel that the website management is really far-sighted, and even speculate that there is inside information.

"Is Yingying really fallen?"

"Temporarily?"

"Our editors are really powerful. Two months ago, we warned you not to write anything that exceeds the standard."

"Me too!"

"Me too!"

A group of Jingjing.com writers were having lively discussions in the group.

"The anti-pornography campaign actually killed Yingying. It's really disappointing!" Pu Sancheng Shen complained in the group. "I remember that I also received Yingying's invitation when I was on the pastry shop. Fortunately, I didn't go."

"Wait a minute, Pu San! If you take a screenshot in another group and you complain, even Pu's eagles won't dig you out." Miss Chunhua's dog posted the collected screenshots, "This was a few months ago. A picture of a group of street authors.”

"Okay! You bitch! You've been having trouble with me all day long, and even my bragging has been revealed!" Pu Sancheng Shen recalled the tragic situation of rushing to the street. Not only was the cake unsigned, but Yingying didn't invite him. If it weren't for Jing, Invited by the editor of Jingdu, he still didn’t know where to jump.

Well, now I am a master of Pusan, my collection is almost 6000, I have ordered 900 each, and I will try my best to reach 1000.

As for Miss Chunhua’s dog, the price is almost 1500.Thinking about it, Pu Sancheng Shen was also gritting his teeth in anger, well, I envy this piece of shit!

……

"I'm so exhausted. There are so many submissions!" Shen Chunhua looked at the more than 50 unread emails in her mailbox and couldn't help complaining.

In the past, Shen Chunhua received as few as one or two articles every day, and as many as five or six articles.

This time, we will directly increase the number of submissions, with thirty to fifty articles submitted every day.

Needless to say, he is basically the author of Eagle Eagle.

Although the quality of submissions is generally not high, we can still pick out some that are of decent quality.

After all, there are so many authors in Yingying, and if you pick just one, you will definitely meet the pastry's signing standards.And if you can meet the pastry standards, you can naturally also meet Jingjing's signing standards.

In addition, the email addresses for accepting submissions for the three editors-in-chief, Lin Qiuyue, Li Hanqiu, and Chen Junqi, are also posted on the website.

However, for the time being, the number of submissions to the three editors' mailboxes, Qiuyue, Hanqiu, and Junzi, is still very small.

For this, the three editors can only be envious... The reason is that whoever submits the article counts as the author.

The more authors there are, the more successful authors will be, and the editor will naturally have greater say.

"I have received no more than 20 submission emails in total, all since I joined the company." Junzi complained.

"Me too, more than 20." Qiuyue nodded.

"I... there are 35 articles in total, and there are 10 articles today." Hanqiu looked at it, "It's just that the content is not very good, a bit unsightly, just like Yingying's style."

"I'm envious!" Junzi and Qiuyue couldn't help but look envious.

While the number of authors' submissions surged, the traffic of Jingjing Reading Network also saw a significant increase in early August.

On August 8, the number of daily active IP addresses reached 7!At the same time, the daily PV views exceeded 350 million.

On average, the number of IP visits is about one-sixth of that of cakes.At the same time, the number of PV views is only less than one-tenth of that of pastries.

This is quite normal. There are more pastry books and readers will read more novels.As for Jingjing Reading Network, the number of books in the library is small, and the length is even less than that of pastries, with a large number of long articles.

In total, the number of views is far inferior to that of pastries.

As for the more core data, the number of daily active registered users has exceeded 2. The total number of VIP readers has exceeded 8000, and the number of daily active VIP readers has stabilized at more than 5000.Among them, VIP reader daily activity refers to VIP readers who have subscribed on that day.

It can be said that the eagle fell and the pastry ate the big meat.

But colleagues, including Jingjing, have all suffered from a wave of authors and readers who moved out of Yingying.

Chapter 212 "In the Snow" published in simplified Chinese

2004 8 Month 8 Day.

"Swordsmanship in the Snow" was published in simplified Chinese in conjunction with Anhui Literature and Art Publishing House on the same day.

Announcement on the homepage of Jingjing Reading Network:

"Warmly celebrate the publication of "Swordsmanship in the Snow" in simplified Chinese, which was launched on August 8 and is a hot seller.

First printing of 1 copies, online genuine physical book purchase channel, Jingjing Books Taobao store.

Purchase online and receive a book cover signed by Liu Mengcheng and a 10-yuan recharge card from Jingjing Reading Network. "

The simplified first episode of "Swordsmanship in the Snow" has only 15 words and is priced at 28 yuan.

The wholesale price offered by the publisher to Jingjing Reading Network is 4.5% off, which is 12.6 yuan per copy.

Jingjing Reading wholesaled 5000 books at a cost of 6.3 yuan.

It is discounted online and sold at the original price of 28 yuan, but it comes with a 10 yuan point card from Jingjing Reading Network.Plus, postage is now $8.

After the point card reader consumes, 7 yuan of manuscript fee will be distributed to the author.Therefore, I did not make any money from selling books. I just wholesaled 5000 novels in order to facilitate the publication of "In the Snow" in simplified Chinese.

But if you are a reader of Jingjing Reading.com, you will not suffer any loss if you buy the simplified Chinese book of "In the Snow" through online channels.

Because, including point cards, the actual price of the book is equivalent to 18 yuan per book.

Well, in online shopping these days, the transaction volume of low-priced goods is not high. The biggest reason is that express delivery costs are relatively expensive.

Wenwen Jingjing Technology Company negotiated specifically with the express delivery company for an order of 8 yuan, with a guarantee of at least 1 orders a year.This allows the express company to make additional profits.

For ordinary merchants without bargaining power, the express delivery fee is generally between 18 yuan and 22 yuan.

Later, the price of express delivery continued to drop, mainly because of the huge investment in domestic transportation infrastructure, which led to a huge increase in transportation costs and efficiency.In addition, the volume of e-commerce transactions has increased rapidly. In order to grab orders, express delivery companies have continuously lowered the unit price of express delivery. As a result, express delivery has become cheaper and cheaper, which further stimulated the development of the e-commerce market.

After this announcement was released, many fans of "In the Snow" on Jingjing Reading.com, as well as the authors of "Snow", were stunned!

Simplified Chinese publishing?

hiss!

Horror!

There is a well-known chain of discrimination in online literature, including contracting authors and discriminating against those who have not yet entered the threshold.

Authors with high subscriptions are discriminated against those with low subscriptions.

Traditional publishing, on the other hand, can discriminate against signed authors of electronic versions who have not been able to publish.

Publishing in simplified Chinese can discriminate against authors who can only publish in traditional Chinese.

All in all, Simplified Chinese publishing, which stands at the top of the discrimination chain, is definitely very high-quality now.

All of a sudden, many writers on Jingjing Reading Network were thinking about it.

The author whose pen name is Dao Dao Dao Dao wrote a martial arts book called "Dao Xing Jiang Hu" on Jingjing Reading Network.

It was originally a traditional martial arts book, but at the editor's suggestion, the beginning was changed to a story about modern people traveling through the ancient martial arts world.The results on Jingjing Reading Network are actually pretty good...

There are actually many groups of martial arts readers.Basically, the vast majority of online readers were once fans of martial arts books.

Gradually, the reason why I don’t read martial arts novels that much is because I have read Jin Yong, Gu Long, Wen Ruian, and Huang Yi. If you then read the martial arts novels written by current martial arts novel writers, they may not be innovative in plot. At the same time, the writing skills It's obviously worse, how can you stand it?

"The Legend of Swordsman" doesn't have any big innovations, it just adds a bit of time travel.The protagonist has traveled through time, but in fact, he is still a traditional martial arts character.

But there was some innovation in 04, so it got more than 3000 collections and 600 subscriptions on Jingjing Reading Network.

It’s not easy for martial arts books to be like this.

"Ms. Weiwei, is there any hope that my book "The Legend of Dao Dao" will be published?" Dao Daodao asked his editor, um, he is also the current editor-in-chief of the website.

"The uncertainty is very high. We need to wait until the publishing and sales results of "In the Snow" are released. If "In the Snow" cooperates with the publishing house, other books on this website will also have the opportunity to develop good cooperation with the publishing house."

Yu Weiwei said, "For the time being, you should write seriously. Only when you earn money from book subscriptions can you be real. Don't be too ambitious. When pursuing publication, you need to polish your writing more. Publishing requires higher writing skills. Like "In the Snow" The writing style can be published without any revisions!”

"Okay! I know!" Daodao Daodao also knew that he jumped into the street and thought too much.

On Jingjing Reading Network, Daodaodaodao’s scores are pretty good.However, the pool of Jingjing Reading Network is relatively small.

Switching to the entire network, his subscription results are not very good.

After all, there are now over [-] subscriptions for the great one, where are the pastries!

Daodaodaodao is not the first author to ask about publishing. The editor of Jingjing Reading Network can only answer that there may be opportunities in the future, and also encourage improvement of writing skills and strength.

From online serialization to physical publishing, you still need to have a certain level of strength.Because the threshold for online signing is low and the cost is also low.

For publishers, physical publishing requires real money.Once the issue is not good and it is rotten in your hands, you will suffer a big loss.

It is precisely for this reason that even if Jingjing Reading Network has hooked up with Anhui Literature and Art Publishing House, there should be only a few publications on the website.

After all, the current simplified version of "Swordsmanship in the Snow" is published by Jingjing Reading Network, which is willing to spend its own money to purchase 5000 copies, accounting for half of the first printing of 1 copies.Only after ensuring that the publishing house has no risk of losing money will Wan Literature and Art Publishing House be willing to cooperate.

The provincial capital of Anhui Province is the capital, not Huijing.

At this time, Badu has not yet experienced a series of business-level developments. Stud BOE LCD panels, Stud home appliances have introduced a bunch of home appliance companies, Stud artificial intelligence has incubated iFlytek, Stud new energy has saved NIO, and Stud has introduced semiconductors. Invested in Changxin Storage.

In short, if a provincial capital learns to use venture capital to invest in emerging industries, venture capital institutions can only stare blankly.

Because the world's top venture capital institutions may not be as rich as a domestic province.
